Hi Shuah,

tty_set_termios() has the following WARN_ON which can be triggered with a
syscall to invoke TIOCSETD __NR_ioctl.

WARN_ON(tty->driver->type == TTY_DRIVER_TYPE_PTY &&
                tty->driver->subtype == PTY_TYPE_MASTER);
Reference: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=2410d22f1d8e5984217329dd0884b01d99e3e48d

The problem started with commit 7721383f4199 ("Bluetooth: hci_uart: Support
operational speed during setup") which introduced a new way for how
tty_set_termios() could end up being called for a master pty.

Fix the problem by preventing setting the HCI line discipline for PTYs
from hci_uart_setup() and hci_uart_set_flow_control().

The reproducer is used to reproduce the problem and verify the fix.

just do it once in hci_uart_tty_open. Actually we already check for ops->write and so lets just ensure all ops we ever call are present. If they are not, then bail out. I wouldn’t even bother with the TTY type. Wouldn’t that be a lot simpler?


As you said, hci_uart_tty_open()is a good place to check it. I think
checking tty type is necessary. I couldn't find any missing ops I could
base the check on to prevent the ldisc set.

I have the patch that does the tty check in hci_uart_tty_open() tested
and ready for sending.

thanks,
